Indian School Sohar celebrated the Oman National Day with great enthusiasm and fervor to pay reverence to its second home, Oman. The whole school wore a festive look. The stage was set portraying the colours of the Oman National Flag. The special guests for the day, staff and students of Rawdat Al Falaj Al Kasa School and Omani staff members of Indian School Sohar were received by the Principal, Mrs. Sanchita Verma, Vice Principal, Dr. Vinu Kumar and Supervisor, Mrs. Indira Sukumaran.
The special morning assembly at ISS began with the Prayer song. Thought for the day and news were presented in Arabic and in English. The enticing song hailing His Majesty and praising the people of the friendly, peace loving nation was apt enough to fill love, pride and patriotism in the minds of the people. Dances were presented by the guest school as well as the host school. They enthralled the audience with their graceful movements. A special quiz on Oman and a speech related to Oman and its people helped the students to know more about the country. It was followed by the prize distribution ceremony, in which our special guests distributed the prizes to the winners in various events. Students wore costumes in national colours, to express their love for the host country. ISS staff members also were dressed up in national colours of Oman.
Mementos and certificates were presented to the teachers and students of Rawdat Al Falaj Al Kasa School as a token of goodwill. Principal, Mrs. Sanchita Verma then addressed the gathering and congratulated the people of this welcoming country, which takes everybody under its wings with warmth and peace. She extended best wishes to the visionary leader His Majesty Sultan Qaboos bin Said on his birthday on behalf of School Managing Committee, staff and students and prayed for his Majesty’s health, long life and happiness. The vote of thanks was proposed by the Arabic Teachers Ms. Shahnaz Khan and Mr. Mohammed Ilyas in Arabic and English.
